Timed Photo Saver for Telegram (Saveit)

This script automatically saves timed (self-destructing) photos and other media from Telegram chats before they disappear. It uses the Telethon library to interact with the Telegram API and download media files, saving them locally and optionally forwarding them to your Saved Messages in Telegram.

Features

• Downloads timed/self-destructing media in Telegram chats.
• Saves downloaded media to the downloads/ folder.
• Automatically forwards the downloaded files to the user's Saved Messages.
• Handles both document-based media and regular media.
• Simple command to trigger the download by replying to a message with .saveit.

Before running the script, ensure you have the following installed:

• Python 3.9+
• Required Python packages:
  • telethon (for interacting with Telegram API)
• FFmpeg and Mediainfo (for media processing, installed automatically if missing)

Installing the required Python packages
